Cooper Flagg confirmed available for March Madness

Duke and the Atlantic Coast Conference have informed the NCAA Tournament selection committee that freshman Cooper Flagg will be available for March Madness. This announcement comes after Flagg sprained his ankle during a recent game. Flagg, who was named ACC player and newcomer of the year, missed Duke's semifinal win against North Carolina. He will not play in the title game against Louisville but was seen walking without a limp. The NCAA committee is monitoring Flagg's injury status, as player availability can influence team seeding for the tournament.
